The work remains a favorite vehicle of the great Beethoven specialists, with numerous recordings by legendary performers.The \"Choral Fantasy\" is a rarity in the Beethoven canon of ensemble music, uniting the virtuoso display of a semi-improvisational solo piano with the vocal and instrumental richness of chorus and orchestra. Said to have been composed under great time pressure, the Fantasy concludes with an extensive choral setting of a text by an unknown poet: \"Schmeichelnd hold und lieblich klingen\" (\"Flatteringly lovely and fair are the sounds of our lifes harmonies...Accept gladly the gifts of beautiful art...\").Reprinted from the authoritative Breitkopf \u0026amp; Hrtel editions, this volume offers musicians and music lovers an inexpensive, high-quality full score of two exceptional works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n        ","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49680066707696,"sku":"sku-51303053132064","price":22.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/concerto-in-c-major-op-56-triple-concerto-and-fantasia","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
